6th Sunday in Ordinary Time
“But whoever obeys and teaches these Commandments will be called greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.”
This week’s Marian image is one of my favorite pictures ever. It is called L’Innocence and was painted in 1893 by William-Adolphe Bouguereau.
The picture is of Our Lady holding her son, Jesus, and also a baby lamb. Both the child and the lamb are symbols of innocence. Additionally, the lamb is symbolic of Jesus, who is the Lamb of God, who would die to take away our sins.
You are in my daily prayers.
God bless you,
Fr. VanDenBroeke
